Talk Plugin for Confluence: New Macro Placeholder in the Edit Mode

If you often use Talk for inline commenting, you might have noticed that any page with a large number of Talk discussions was a kind of motley in the Edit mode. Those awkward macro placeholders could break the text and complicated working with content in the editor.

We fixed this in version 1.7.3 by introducing a new macro placeholder. It’s actually the same now as in the View mode – a small Talk icon that is still easy to notice on a page without making a mess of your page.

We also fixed several bugs including the Insert button that remained disabled after pasting a text to a new Talk discussion, so now the plugin is more stable. Other improvements include a redesigned license page and revised German, Russian and Spanish translations.
